There is a slight flaw...
The MBK and WM9 are different cases and bezel assemblies COMPLETELY different. This has been discussed before. Seven thank you for posting but you have a few errors in your post. BKs new watch is just wm9's watch with mods, the absolute best BY FAR on the market right now.
Honestly I think there should be two choices made apparent to newbies. Noob or WM9 from BK. You are either going for a good cheap rep, or an expensive one that is spot on. The WM9 blows the MBK/euromariner/whatever else out of the water.
Finally, Lain rocks
